The Unfinished Angel

"Sometimes a people needs an angel and sometimes an angel needs a people." So speaks the angel who is caring so tenderly if a bit clumsily for the people of this village in Switerland. There is a vibrant young girl named Zola who routinely appears before the angel and say, "Do something." This angel struggles with the art of language and with the art of being an angel. Neither goes smoothly or easily and both go with great heart and right on target. Words you never heard before should be in the language. This time the angel's job is finding a safe place for a group of lost and hungry orphans. Charming. Delightful. A story to read and re-read.
